We think of His earthly life as moving on a plane so different from ours that no parallel can be drawn between them. What we forget is, that He too needed to walk by faith, needed to be filled with the Holy Spirit, needed the sympathy of loving friends, needed the strengthening that is gained by private prayer. His strong and beautiful, serene and holy life so fills the eye that we lose sight of His secret intercourse with the Father, out of which came all its beauty, all its power.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7187</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Accuracy of language is one of the bulwarks of truth. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24068]]></link><description><![CDATA[Accuracy of language is one of the bulwarks of truth.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24068</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637  There is a pride of faith, more ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7121]]></link><description><![CDATA[Commemoration of Nicholas Ferrar, Deacon, Founder of the Little Gidding Community, 1637  There is a pride of faith, more unforgiveable and dangerous than the pride of the intellect. It reveals a split personality in which faith is "observed" and appraised, thus negating that unity born of a dying-unto-self, which is the definition of faith. To "value" faith is to turn it into a metaphysical magic, the advantages of which ought to be reserved for a spiritual elite.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7121</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of Justin, Martyr at Rome, c.165 Commemoration of Angela de'Merici, Founder of the Institute of St. Ursula, 1540  ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7399]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of Justin, Martyr at Rome, c.165 Commemoration of Angela de'Merici, Founder of the Institute of St. Ursula, 1540  This astonishing sense of spiritual attack which, it seems to me, must inevitably follow the continual reading of the four Gospels, without preconception but with an alert mind, is not the sole privilege of the translator. It can happen to anyone who is prepared to abandon proof-texts and a closed attitude of mind, and allow not merely the stories but the quality of the Figure Who exists behind the stories to meet him afresh. Neat snippets of a few verses are of course useful in their way, but the overall sweep and much of the significance of the Gospel narratives are lost to us unless we are prepared to read the Gospels through, not once but several times.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Circumstances beyond my individual control. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8707]]></link><description><![CDATA[Circumstances beyond my individual control.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/8707</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Get Estates may venture more.
